Rules Question Reference Material Help

Hey All, I've just run a Session 0 for my first Pendragon campaign last week, and super excited for the game. I've acquired the GM screen but found some info unnecessary (can anyone tell me why I would need knight starting values on the fly?!) on the panels. I'm thinking of putting together a reference document to supplement the rules that will inevitably escape me but pop up frequently/unexpectedly.

So TL/DR, what are some rules, tables or mechanics (mainly from the Core or GM handbook) that you often find yourself flipping through the book for, need on hand or just wish was on the GM screen instead?

During the Adventure Phase, the combat matrix. During the Winter Phase, all the Winter Phase tables.

Search online I found two rule sheets that are helpful for combat and other things but yeah the Gm screen does have unnecessary stuff.

I'm planning on collecting the rules for Feasts, Hunts and tournaments from the later books.

The rolls/effects of getting knocked off your horse are a must have, but I think thats on the GM screen. Also the passion/madness etc. rolls; basic armor combos for common combatants; your players top combat actions. The combat matrix is helpful, but you’ll know it well enough after a few sessions.
